Chapter 316 The Small Tricks of the Other Two Schools

The fast Chinese. Chinese domain name directly accessed the conversation between Sean and Lupin with one click, which made Fred, who was running around, come over with interest. "Are you talking about the newly recruited professor for the advanced class? Hey, George, come and listen." "Here you go." "What, what, the new professor for the advanced class?" Hermione also gathered around gossiping. The birthday boys, Harry and Ron, saw everyone gathering together and came over. Lupine didn't care at all, and said to several people, "You all read "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" when you were young, right?" "Of course, the stories in it are wonderful." Fred said. George nodded, "Charlie read it to us several times when we were little." "Um, what kind of book is "The Tales of Beedle the Bard"? Why haven't I seen it in the textbook?" Origin Hermione, who came from Muggle society, looked confused. "It's a collection of fairy tales. Almost all children in the wizarding world have read it when they were young." Sean explained that he had actually read this book. His uncle Hearns bought a pulp-covered copy of N at a scrap recycling store. Show him the stuff. Ron suddenly laughed, "Hey, there are also books that our college bully Hermione hasn't read." "What about that, Ron, I haven't read it either." Harry said abruptly. He was the same as Hermione. , living in a Muggle society and having no access to children's books from the magical world. "So what does The Tales of Beedle the Bard have to do with the new professor?" Sean asked. "It has nothing to do with the new professor." Lu Ping said. "Professor, are you just teasing us?!" Sean was so angry at Lupine's answer that he almost vomited blood. Lu Ping smiled slyly, "But it has something to do with the new professor's family. The author of the collection of stories, Beedle, is the ancestor of the Shafiq family." "What, that author is from the Shafiq family, I thought Are they French or German?" Fred said. Sean asked, "Dumbledore chose him, so his level should be good, right?" "I heard that he didn't study at Hogwarts, but graduated from Durmstrang. He is good at dark magic and darkness." The resume in biology was very well written, and Dumbledore also gave him a try, and was quite satisfied with it in every aspect. "The key point is that when Umbridge interviewed him, the salary negotiation was said to be over quickly." Sirius came over with a glass of red wine and participated in everyone's chat. "I see, it's just a down-and-out nobleman who came out to show off his face and wanted to give the Shafik family some exposure." "It's not impossible. It is said that Umbridge paid him a very low salary. Umbridge was still polite and greeted her with a smile, probably because she wanted to build a relationship with the Ministry of Magic," Lupine added. In the past, Sean was particularly concerned about the arrival of new professors every year, because if anything happened to Hogwarts, it would most likely be because of the newcomers. Now that he was in a bad mood, Sean heard about the Ministry of Magic's bid for sponsors of the Triwizard Tournament in the bar. The commercial activities at that time would be in full swing. Think about this mixed scene. "I'm tired, just do whatever you want." In a blink of an eye, the vacation was coming to an end, and during this period, Drane Shafiq, the new professor in the improvement class, went to the Leaky Cauldron once. He took the initiative to chat with Sean. Sean looked at the gentle man in front of him, and he did look a bit like a down-and-out aristocrat. His hair was combed meticulously, with a standard gentleman's hair style. Although he had a bit of beard, it could be seen that he had taken care of it regularly and kept it clean and smooth. As usual, Sean used his magic eyes to examine it. It looked normal. As for whether it was controlled by control magic, Sean couldn't tell, but Dumbledore must have checked it. If someone like Lockhart was simply threatened by Halbo and was willing to become a lackey, it would be difficult to identify him unless he used Legilimency to peek into his memory. But it is impossible for Dumbledore to do this, and it is impossible for applicants with evil intentions to allow it. Even normal wizards who just come to apply for jobs will not allow their privacy to be peeked into. This method is used by the Ministry of Magic to interrogate prisoners. . "I know you are the main player of the Hogwarts representative team. I have some news here. Durmstrang's roster has done some legal and compliant things. It is said that they temporarily transferred two people from Germany before the end of the last semester. "Transfer student." "I graduated from Durmstrang." "Why are you telling me this?" Sean asked. Drane smiled and said, "I know that you are the core figure in the advanced class. I just came to Hogwarts. Although I am a professor, I still hope that students can support me. It is not easy to be a good faculty member these days. "Sean didn't know what his intention was, so he just thought he was trying to get close. On the train back to school on September 1, fifth grader Bernard Lestrange, a member of Ouroboros, waved to Sean in the carriage. "I said Bernard, we can't sit here." Sean said. "I know, just say a few words and leave right away." With that, Bernard squeezed in, and Sean had to sit inside, squeezing Chris into a corner. "I'm here to tell you two news," Bernard said to Sean and Chris. "As you know, I am from the Lestrange family." "But our family is not actually our sect. The Lestrange family on the British side came from France centuries ago. "And the French side is divided into three Lestrange families in the north, south, and east. These three branches uphold the tradition. The concept of blood supremacy, the same race is preferred for reproduction and inheritance, that is, there are frequent intermarriages between the three branches." Sean interrupted Bernard's speech, "Wait, although the story of the Lanstrange family is quite interesting. But what does this have to do with us? Is your family going to be involved in some kind of clan competition?

"Bernard explained, "I want to say that because of the pure blood of the French Lestrange family, they can produce great figures every few years. "There is one French representative in this top three competition, and he is already 18 years old. "18 years old?" Hasn’t that already graduated? "Chris raised her own doubts. "Normally he graduated, but Babston Magic School changed his student status file and made him repeat the grade. "A repeater?" What's so great about that, I can do it too. "Cassius' words made several people roll their eyes at him. "Babston's method is really shameless. " Sean said. He suddenly remembered what Drane told him about Durmstrang looking for foreign aid. "Okay, I'm done with what I want to say. I have to take care of the new boys. "Bernard stood up and said. Bernard, who is already in fifth grade, was elected as a prefect by his classmates with excellent results. He has to be responsible for guiding the newly admitted students, and the two prefects, Sean and Chris, who are in sixth grade, There is no need to worry about the second-year students, they can already prepare for school on their own.
